Study Notes
Electromagnetic Induction
- The phenomenon in which a changing magnetic field in a circuit induces an electromotive force (emf) is called electromagnetic induction.
- Electromagnetic induction occurs when there is a change in magnetic flux through a circuit.
Induced EMF
- When the rate of change of magnetic flux through a coil increases, the induced emf in the coil also increases.
- The magnitude of the induced emf is directly proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux.
Lenz's Law
- Lenz's law states that the direction of the induced current in a circuit is such that it opposes the change in magnetic flux that induces it.
- The induced current flows in a direction that generates a magnetic field that counteracts the original change in magnetic flux.
